Favorite closed cans for CSPs (actually a CSP2...)08/23/15 at 19:32:54

Hey there!

I was just about to pull the trigger on some Beyer DT250s, but before I do, I was wondering what else out there I may be overlooking. I'm looking for a high-impedance pair that have to be closed, unfortunately I think if I tried running a pair of HD600s in my office, they'd hang me by my own headphone cord...

What else have you guys liked for $500 and under? I've heard that Beyer is coming out with the DT1770, but I hear conflicting reports on whether it'll be flat enough in FR to make it worth the wait.

You might want to consider in ear phones. While I'm at work I often use Sennheiser ear buds with my laptop. The SQ is surprisingly good. I don't listen to music at work but do listen to CNBC or conferences. The in ear option also allows me to use one ear leaving the other out so I can hear others when they speak to me. In ear phones have gotten very good. Just a thought.

At home I enjoy Audeze LCD 2.2 headphones paired to a Taboo MK III. They have an impedance of 70 ohms, I've never tried them with my CSP3. Mark.
